I made a post yesterday and it racked up a load of upvotes. I happened to go into the community today with a filter for top past 12 hours on, and though my post had more upvotes than the others, it didn't show there at all.

What's that all about? It's like I've blocked myself or something.

Edit: I checked another post in another community with not as many upvotes and it doesn't show in the top past 12 hours filter either, when it should be top.

I have no idea what the admins are doing with lemmy.world but every day the ai_reddit community posts are near the top despite only 1 upvote on posts and I'm not subscribed to that community.

I've noticed lately if I go into "all" and sort by "top" 6 or 12 hours I get all posts with zero comments and maybe one upvote. It's like the non-existent algorithm wants me to see stuff I and no one else cares about.

if reddit does evil shit; i fully expect diet-reddit to do the same.

but don't worry, there's a whole new diet-reddit where people can go get more of the same treatment.
